2Pro, a group of fourth year marketing students from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines - Manila, will host their first ever live webinar entitled “Ready, Set, Launch! A Journey into the Digital Marketing Space'' the 18th of June 2022, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. 

The event aims to discuss the influence of the Gen Z culture and market on the current digital marketing approach of brands, which is specifically prevalent on social networking sites such as Facebook, Tiktok, and Instagram by participating in fun trends and challenges. Moreover, people who belong to the Gen Z batch is estimated to be up to 40 million of the Philippine’s population and is considered as the biggest segment of our country’s occupiers. This statistics proves just how big of an impact Gen Z has on our market. Having knowledge on their influence will greatly bring much benefits to us as future marketers. This topic and more will be discussed by Mr. Allan Galvez, current dean of the College of Business Administration and Accountancy of Jose Rizal University. 

This webinar also aims to discuss the fundamentals of Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing or SEO and SEM. It is highly important for our future marketers to understand how to optimize search engines for the brand they are going to work with. Added to that, with the booming of digital platforms, SEO and SEM are a great way to increase online traffic. It is also found that Filipinos spend an average time of 10.27 hours surfing the internet using various devices. This means to say that, as a marketer, there is a higher chance of your promotions to be seen by the netizens during the hours of their browsing. This topic will be explored further by Mr. MJ Marquez, who is currently working as a full-time instructor at Rizal Technological University.
